What is a political issue is when political leaders lie to the public about the cause. "It's the wind turbines fault." "This is why green energy can never work."

These kind of blatant falsehoods should be inexcusable, but we're living in a strange world these days.

I wholeheartedly agree with you. Our lawmakers and politicians should be held accountable for spreading lies. That being said, I still believe that this is an engineering problem first and not a problem with the Texas regulations or the politics behind why Texas has its own grid.
